Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
2-3 motions per day in a one year old baby is not a matter of concern.
You may ask for stool examination to rule out infection as the color is green.
One year old baby is 3 times its birth weight.
8.25 kg is not a bad weight as the baby is active.
Give her milk as well as natural foods like cooked rice and dal, fruits/juices and green leafy vegetables and suppliment these with vitamin drops.
Naturally growth slows down after one year of age.

Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
